those stop/tail/indicators are hot!
not sure the fog light will be alright though... its listed as a marker light. so basically tail light brightness i think. its only got 4 LED's
in it. you know those little lights on the top corners of lorry trailers? i think they're those

stupid question, but did you not consider fitting in LED bulbs to your lamps? Prices have droppped to levels that even I would pay!!
and how long do you think it will be before you'll be posting that your indicators no longer flash at the correct rate?

ive got some LED bulbs in the side/tail at the moment; they came with my wireless 3rd brake light-one has the transmitter built in. But i fancied some
sleeker light units on the back
dont worry ive got load resistors to ensure they flash at the correct rate

nothing, i dont plan to use the car for anything other than track work and blats in the sunshine.
think of the fog light as a "token gesture"; you gotta have something fitted!

fair enough, but it'll need to be tested for MOT, and it won't be bright enough to satify any tester i'm afraid
